Answer:

The percent increase of the second year is 400%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let the population of birds was x.

After 2 years the population becomes 7 times more than before.

Therefore, after 2 years population is 7x.

In first year increase in the population was 40%.

Population after 1st year = x + 40% of x

Population after 1st year = x + 0.40x

Population after 1st year = 1.4x

The population increase from 1st year to 2nd year is: 7x-1.4x=5.6x

Thus the percentage increase is:

\% increase=\frac{5.6x}{1.4x}\times100=400\%

Hence, in second year the population of birds increase by 400%.

podryga [215]

Answer:

  (c)  714.96 = 21.6(w +4.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangular park will be the product of its length and width. This relation is used to write an equation to find the original width of the park.

<h3>Width</h3>

Let w represent the original width of the park in meters. The new width is 4.7 meters more, so is represented by (w +4.7).

<h3>Other dimensions</h3>

The length of the park is given as 21.6 meters. The area is given as 714.96 square meters.

<h3>Area formula</h3>

The various dimensions of the park are related by the area formula:

  A = LW

  714.96 = 21.6(w +4.7)
